DIFC data centre to receive
M&O stamp of approval
The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) colocation
data centre has become the first datacentre in the UAE
to receive the internationally recognised Management
and Operations (M&O) Stamp of Approval from Uptime
Institute, the leading, unbiased standards and Certs
organisation for the data centre and IT infrastructure.
In achieving the Uptime Institute M&O Stamp of Approval,
the assessment particularly noted DIFC data centre’s
cohesive management structure and oversight of its spare
part inventory, allowing for the reduction of mean time to
fix, delivering a clear advantage when replacing key items.
Commenting on the certification, Arif Amiri, Chief Executive
Officer of DIFC Authority, said, “As the first data centre in
the UAE to complete this important assessment, we are
honoured to receive the Uptime Institute M&O Stamp of
Approval. With nearly 20,000 skilled professionals working
within the Centre, DIFC has a large pool of qualified
talent capable of managing, planning and coordinating
operations.” Our objective is to advance towards a ‘smart’
platform and provide a secure and resilient technological
infrastructure to ensure minimum risks and maximum
uptime. As part of our 2024 growth strategy, we will
continue to ensure that the technology we offer evolves to
meet global standards and certifications,” he continued.
